EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, mounted on his horse during World War I. Born in September 1889, Gibson served valiantly in the medical corps, earning the Military Medal for his bravery and dedication to saving lives on the battlefield. The photograph, taken during the war years, shows Gibson in his military uniform, wearing the distinctive red cross insignia of the Royal Army Medical Corps, and a steady gaze as he looks off into the distance. His horse, a sturdy and well-trained steed, stands calmly beside him, its ears pricked forward in alertness. The backdrop of the image is a blur of muddy trenches and makeshift military structures, a reminder of the harsh and unforgiving conditions of the battlefield. The use of natural light and the stark contrast between the light and shadow areas in the photograph add to its historical significance and the sense of authenticity. The image is a testament to the vital role that horses played in the military during the war, and the crucial role that medical personnel like Gibson played in ensuring the survival of wounded soldiers. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson during the Great War. It is a powerful and evocative image that speaks to the courage, determination, and resilience of those who served during this pivotal moment in history.
